Deirdre Flint - Tinman Lyrics
They say that life's a stage and we are only playersWish I knew who'd written my part.Cause when the curtain falls and we all take our curtain callsI'm the one with the broken heart.Guess it had to be someoneWhat's the stage without a little tragedy?Guess it had to be someoneBut oh, it seems the someone's always me!CHORUS: Hey, hey Mr. Playwright,These roles are killing me yetHave pity on a broken-hearted playerIf you can hear me, please heed this requestDon't want to land the hero, don't want the leading roleDon't want the lights or the fans, no.Next time you write me in, rememberI want to play the Tinman.They say we all will get our entrances and exitsWhen's my turn, I'd like to know?Cause when it's finally time for someone to be exitingI've always got the line of, ÂPlease, please don't go.
